Schwabe has grown up with the real estate industry in the Northwest. For more than 100 years, we have assisted clients with signature projects throughout the region, including the building of the country’s largest petroleum ‎transloading facility and the leasing and sale of downtown Seattle’s Exchange Building.

Known as one of the Northwest’s premier real estate firms, we represent clients in all aspects of development, financing, ownership and disposition of commercial, industrial and office properties. Our focus is on what needs to happen—and what does not need to happen—to achieve client goals and complete a transaction effectively.
